Milpitas police respond to shots fired

A report of gunfire on the 200 block of Rose Drive near Pashote Court forced closure of the thoroughfare for several hours today as police collected evidence.

At 12:41 p.m., Milpitas police say officers were called to the Rose Drive area west of Marshall Pomeroy Elementary School but found no suspects.

"We're not aware of any injuries," Milpitas police Lt. Sandy Holliday said Wednesday afternoon. "The road was closed for evidence collection."

Holliday, who stated Rose Drive was reopened to vehicle traffic at about 4 p.m., would not confirm whether evidence collected may have included bullet casings. She also would not confirm if homes or vehicles had been hit by gunfire.

"That's part of the stuff we're not releasing right now," Holliday said.
